The Lowbrow Art Sale: Alex Gross, Brian Viveros & Fred Harper

Tue Mar 18, 2008 at 08:00:00 AM

Alex Gross "ButterFlies In The Rain"

An award winning painter and one time art professor, Alex Gross should have been in these lists long ago . Much of his work is inspired by his time spent traveling through Japan. This is a polymer etching on Rives BFK paper and was made by the pros at Pressure Printing. Etchings are amazing but not quite common anymore. This specific one is pretty much sold out save for a few proofs Alex has left over.

Brian M. Viveros "DirtyLand"

With a perfect blend of erotic and surreal art, Brian M Viveros has been making a big noise in the art world. The Art of Porn exhibition held in Switzerland is what really helped to kick start his career. Brian has an amazing style of painting, I love the expressions on the figures in his work. There is always some kind of naughty or sultry look, like in this piece. The prints are signed and numbered in an edition of 69.

Fred Harper "Amber Tears"

New York is just filled with amazing artists, Fred Harper is one them. This is the kind of surreal painting that I enjoy the most. Fred has an upcoming show at the Last Rites Gallery in New York that was just started by Genevive Zacconi and Paul Booth. I'm a huge fan of all of Fred's painting but this one has to be my favorite, and you can only get this print from the Last Rites Gallery. It's signed and numbered in an edition of 200.

Chris Buzelli "DNA"

An illustrator out of New York, Chris has done work for Playboy, RollingStone, Village Voice and many others. All of his paintings are in oil, and you can see that rich feel that oil gives even in these pictures. The color in this one has that feel that it's quite old and just on the verge of cracking. Each one of his prints are on Hahnemule photo rag, limited to only 25.

Danny Roberts "By Any Means Necessary"

An artist living in Las Vegas, Danny has been working in the Commercial art field for 10 years. He is now showing his personal art in galleries such as M Modern Gallery, which he currently has a solo show at. Danny's style is very dynamic and colorful. I don't have to wear a suit for any of my jobs, I did at one point and hated it. But when your out kicking ass, wearing a suit makes it look way smoother. This print is 13" x19" and you can choose a white or black border.
